Our raffle started out last year as a donation to Cancer research in honor of one our fellow racers. It went so well we decided to do it again this year. Everyone exceeded my expectations and this year was very successful. Many thanks to all who participated and especially the following that stepped up and donated gifts, which were not asked for, but greatly appreciated! Cloverleaf Racing, Slot Car Corner, Slot Car Corner Canada, Oscar Racing and Mark from Team Hazard!! It was an overwhelming experience for one person but very rewarding. There have been several suggestions for next year to make the process a little less cumbersome. Each team researched and chose their own charity this year. A member of our racing family recently lost his mother to Alzheimer's so the Cloverleaf Racing Team chose to donate to Michigan Alzheimer's. Mike at Cloverleaf Racing donated an additional $100 and Oscar Racing donated $500. To make our donation more exciting, Oscar Racing (Paul) works for Pitney Bowes which matched our donation dollar for dollar for a total donation of $1,680 to Michigan Alzheimer's. I cannot speak for everyone but this fundraising is very rewarding and everyone should try to do the same at their events. I will let the other teams share their posts about the charities they chose this year. Again thank you for all the generous donations and the winners will be posted next.
